agents.anac.y2010.AgentSmith.SmithBidStrategy

public class SmithBidStrategy
extends ABidStrategy

The strategy that is used in our agent. It samples the bid space, takes the bids that are near Pareto and returns them as next actions. NOTE There are two bugs in this strategy: 1. The agent incorrectly assumes that there are only 2 minutes 2. The agent checks if it gave "enough" utility to the opponent instead of itself
